Old dog new tricks Creo config.pro looking for a config.pro to close the dialog boxes
Trying to post more....
I teach a wide variety of Creo classes and usually tell participants in class to try to run a mostly stock config.pro file as PTC does a good job with the defaults. With that said our/your Creo administrators like to modify those configuration settings and get us accustomed to sometimes old ways often slower ways of doing things. For example, It's simply slower to feel compelled to look straight on in a sketch 100 percent of the time.
Looking for a config.pro option to close dialog boxes. In Creo 9.0 the development team felt it necessary to make the dialog boxes automatically open for the user to fill in prompts. After all an open UI seems helpful. In my effort to be open-minded, I've tried my best to use Creo with this new default. I however find the dialog boxes open right where my model is + I use effective speed tips in Creo (that I teach - maybe a topic for a lunch-and-learn). The dialog boxes open is A bit annoying and Im ready to give up on those. Does anyone know where the config.pro option is to keep closed (like years past) those dialog boxes to remain closed might be? I suppose there is one but have been unable to locate it.

That is stored in a .ui file along with all of the windows settings. It is not set using a config option.

I'm not sure what you are explaining. Can you provide a screen shot?

This is a boundary blend... in the past the dialog box would remain closed forcing the user to open the box to add other direction for example. I had to pan the model out of the way to make my selection.

I think this is the setting you want. Not sure if there is a config.pro option for it or not.
